This is different and that's why I like it so much. The sky is cloudy and yet the rocks are on fire with light. I like how they you captured the scene with the big rock up close- it creates depth. And a big for the width.

I love the light and the clouds and the colour but this just doesn't do much for me. Maybe it's the format/composition I can't really say, it looks very wide angle distorted too, not sure that helps.A good image but not a personal fave.

well yes, that would be true, but the light at sunrise is usually cleaner and brighter so you can end up with shots with even richer colours. For example on hazy evenings you can actually see the sun go pink, but at this point very little sunlight actually reaches the scene. I think both sunrises and sunset have their charms though
